G-Unit was an American hip hop group formed by longtime friends and East Coast rappers 50 Cent, Tony Yayo, and Lloyd Banks. After amassing a string of self-released mixtapes in the early 2000s, the group released their debut album Beg for Mercy in 2003, which went on to ship over four million copies in the US and was certified quadruple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
Christopher Charles Lloyd, better known by his stage name Lloyd Banks, is an American rapper. He began his career as a member of East Coast hip hop group G-Unit, alongside childhood friends 50 Cent and Tony Yayo. After the group released their debut album Beg for Mercy (2003), Banks released his debut solo album, The Hunger for More in 2004. The album was met with positive reviews and peaked at number one on the Billboard 200—making him the only G-Unit signee besides 50 Cent to achieve this—and spawned the Billboard Hot 100 top ten hit single, "On Fire". He followed up with his second album Rotten Apple (2006), which saw mixed reviews and a commercial decline. Banks then left Interscope Records and signed with EMI in 2010, as did his G-Unit cohorts. His third album, H.F.M. 2 (2010) was met with improved critical reception and moderate commercial response.
